Ruthin School

Founded in 1284, Ruthin School is one of the UK’s oldest and most successful independent schools, combining academic ambition with exceptional pastoral care in a safe, welcoming community. Our ethos of Taking Your Learning Further, underpins everything we do – encouraging students to challenge themselves, think critically and achieve beyond expectation. We are proud to be a High Performance Learning (HPL) school, developing every student’s intellectual curiosity, confidence and resilience. Through this globally recognised approach, students learn how to learn – building habits and skills that enable success both in the classroom and in life beyond Ruthin.


Our students consistently achieve outstanding academic results and progress to leading universities in the UK and overseas, including regular offers from Oxbridge and Russell Group institutions. We offer tailored Pathways to Excellence in Medicine, Business, Art, Engineering, and other competitive fields, each designed to support students with specialist preparation, enrichment opportunities and one-to-one mentoring. Set within the beautiful North Wales countryside, Ruthin School welcomes day and boarding students from around the world. With small classes, individual attention and a culture of respect and ambition, every student is encouraged to thrive academically and personally.

 

The school is situated at the foot of the beautiful Clwydian Range hills in north Wales, next to the charming market town of Ruthin. We are located within an hour’s drive of Snowdonia National Park and the cities of Chester, Liverpool and Manchester.

Small, academically ambitious, internationally minded school combining high expectations with exceptional individual care and support.
